Today for my birthday my daughter and I decided to go to the Ridge Ranch . As soon as we arrived we…read moreknew we were going to love it and love it we did ! We were able to hold bunnies and baby goats ! We also brushed some donkeys fed some cows and it was interesting and very interactive and of course a ton of fun . Arielle and her husband Dan run a great farm and you can sense their passion . I made a reservation online (required) as well as paid in advance (required) and it was easy and very affordable I would think maybe even too cheap for what you're getting . It's very expensive to care and feed all these animals never mind the vet bills . I highly recommend this farm for anyone who wants hands on experience as well as tons of information about these beautiful animals .

Finally had a chance to go apple picking with a group of friends at this lovely, sprawling orchard…read moreduring Fall Festival Country Music theme weekend. There was a lot going on throughout, including awesome live music, hot apple cider, farm store filled with gourmet products, multiple food vendors, pumpkin cheesecake tastings, and of course the vast orchard where all the apple trees were, which were all located uphill. There were over 10 different types of apples, such as Mutsu, Evergreen, Macoun, Snapdragon, and Honeycrisp. I mostly collected the more unique kinds. I also managed to locate the Pear trees, way behind the hay riding area. I picked Asian and Bosc pears. We went on a hay ride, which was $5 and it was rustic, bumpy, giving a sweeping view of the beautiful orchard grounds. Back in the main area, we had lunch. By this time, lines were pretty long, so we divided and conquered, as well as found a place to sit. I shared Pork Ribs and Fries, which were both very tasty. The Ribs were delightfully tender and well seasoned. Fries were perfectly crispy. One draw back was that most everything at the store and most lunch items were quite expensive. Overall, there were great vibes, and I really enjoyed the views at the farm, apple / pear picking, as well as the hay ride.

One of the best times I've had in a really long time!…read more As a born and raised Floridian, I'd never been apple picking, but a fall trip demanded it so we found ourselves here on the last weekend of the season. We started down at the bottom of the hill with "Apple Cannons" ! Pneumatic launchers that lobbed our apples into an old truck, pumpkins, hay bales, and fun targets. So awesome! Then we headed up to the main event and wow! It was a total vibe! - A live band playing exactly the perfect country music you'd expect at an apple orchard on a cool fall day. - Vendors selling soft & hard cider, juice, various hot foods, and my personal favorite, hot fresh apple cider donuts! - Costumed characters walking around passing out trick or treat candy to the kids. - An Apple orchard! Row after row after row of apple trees, most were picked pretty clean, but we found lots of juicy and delicious fruit waiting for us on the trees. You can wander around and eat whatever you want or buy a bag and take some home... We did both! Inside there's a general store and souvenir shop as well, and everyone we let or talked to was helpful and friendly, but we had all our fun out in the open.

Come for the donuts! Yes it's absolutely worth the drive from wherever you are coming from. All the…read morebaked goods are amazing! There are a few places in the area, but this one is great. No cover charge and I could eat a dozen donuts. We got the scones and apple strudel as well. Both 12/10! The apple cider is also off the charts. Some of the best I've had. The pies are super fresh and I wanted one of everything! They post that they sell at local DeCicco's as well but can't confirm if it's all flavors... No u pick apples but they have every variety imaginable in the stand and all were fresh like they were picked that day. Plenty of other farm fresh veggies and honey. There is also some spots to eat outside and a food truck with some pizza and bbq options. The road to get here is a little rough. Super narrow and some spots where only one car can pass at a time. There is a parking lot and street parking available. Would very much depend on the time of day and year you are going but we were able to get a spot in front at the end of the day. Would definitely recommend for anyone of all ages especially if you love apple cider donuts!

The food truck outside is painfully slow. It took about 20-25 minutes to order food and then…read moreanother 30 minutes to get the food. They have some bbq options at this location. Around 2pm, they were sold out of pork and wings. Live music outside (country) and several picnic tables outside. Bathroom is an outhouse. The donuts are good - they're the fried kinds. Not super friendly staff. The cheddar scone was suepr dry and tough - it wasn't flaky at all.

I will say, there needs to be more food options & enough of it. Price point is a hit or miss depending on how big your group is. Unsure what's the point of the time slots. You HAVE to make sure you RSVP but you can arrive anytime before 5pm? I did see apples, peaches & other fruits in the process of growing. I plan on visiting again for event days.

Very cute spot for apple picking! I went rather late in the season so many apple trees were picked…read morethrough, but they do a good job of noting which trees are done for the season and including bins of apple varieties that are pre-picked. There's a hay bale ride constantly cycling through the farm so you can hop on and off whenever you want, but the orchard is pretty walkable as well. Overall, the apples were sweet and the farm made it a fun and easy experience though I wish they also provided sticks for reaching apples higher up in trees. The corn maze was pretty fun and they have a few sheep to pet. They have several food options including vegan selections and their hard cider was pretty good.
